What does Islander smell like?

The opening is led by lime and two kinds of rum, so it reads fresh, fruity and a little sweet. In the heart, Haitian vetiver and Guatemala cardamom add a dry, spicy, green edge. The base of Atlas cedar, Caribbean gaiac wood and Havana tobacco pulls it towards a warm, woody finish.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the number of votes is small, so treat that with caution. Voters lean mostly towards leisure and daily wear, with some picking business and evening. It reads masculine.
